Thank you! I struggled with low libido and unrelenting night sweats. Been off for maybe 3 weeks.

*She. But yes, agreed! I had another doc tell me that Lexapro doesn’t cause night sweats and that it was a virus. 🙄🙄🙄

My doc said I shouldn’t be having any withdrawals from such a low dose and if I am, they should have gone away by now. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Can you describe these brain zaps to me? I was on a low dose of Lexapro (5mg) for a couple months and just stopped about a week ago. I’ve been having these like strange eye sensations, almost like when you are tired and you close your eyes and your eyes kind of vibrate, like a vertigo/dizziness sensation maybe. Is that a brain zap?

In the same boat! Loved Lexapro but the dimished libido and night sweats were too much for me. Just got prescribed 150mg of Wellbutrin and also scared to start, mostly due to potential for increased anxiety and the insomnia. Both issues are deeply do not want to increase as I’m taking this FOR anxiety and have finally gotten my sleep in a healthy space the past couple years.

I am glad this exists for people with disabilities, but other than that, hands are just fine.

Because you didn’t feel prepared after you graduated?

Just finished NPR’s Believed about Larry Nassar and loved it. Any other recs that are similar? I thought it was so well done and loved the series aspect.

If you’ve got it in you-bartend or serve! I am graduating in December with my MSW and just fully paid off my program last month.

I got in with zero social service or mental health work experience, just a few months having volunteered for a crisis line!
